the Extra-Old
EXTRA-OLD Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Modena PDO (Protected Designation of Origin).
The Nobleness of a patient wait: the threshold of over 25 years of ageing leads to a real treasure of delicious discoveries.
The main feature of the Extra Old category is the strong perception of a total and inextricable harmony of perfumes and aromas; an effect due to the long ageing period and its consequent progressive approach of extreme notes. So, if the first sensation suggests a smooth taste on its whole, homogeneous, delicate and noble, immediately the energy of a still lively acidity springs out entirely, in a perfectly balanced result.
The long concentration and refinement of the various Extra Old personalities make them more recognizable and persistent because of the ageing performed in different specific woods.
